Quick Guide
The program presents a single window with two main parts.
File Browser
Shows image previews. Simply drag and drop files, folders or queries from any Tracker window
Shown items can be selected in a Tracker-like fashion (mouse and SHIFT/ALT keys).
The program first tries to load an image preview stored in designated file attributes. If enabled, JPEG images are then searched for embedded EXIF thumbnails. If there is no embedded image previews one will be created using the Translation Kit, but it is not stored anywhere - you can do that by Write Thumbnails option in Attribute menu.
When a Tracker query is dropped into the view, the program reads all the matching queries and starts listening for updates - you can cancel that with the red stop button.

Shows additional info about selected files.When a single item is selected changing a name will rename the associated entry. If multiple items are selected (indicated by a wildcard in the filename) the program will try to rename files by replacing the wildcard with numbers.
